Description: Combining the dramatic photographs of Gordon Converse with Gospel selection and historical and archaeological commentary supplied respectively by Cobbey Crisler and Robert Bull, tow highly respected Holy Land scholars, this handsome volume sweeps you back across nearly twenty centuries into the living landscape of the Gospels. Carefully avoiding the intrusions of modern civilization, FISHERS OF MEN retraces the footsteps of Paul, John, Peter, Philip and the other disciples as they spread the ministry of Christ westward through the ancient world, From Jerusalem to Antioch, Damascus and Tarsus, west through Turkey and Greece, to Malta and on to the capital of the Holy Roman Empire, rome, these haunting images capture and portray the landscapes and scenes, the ancient cities and temples, the rivers and seas as they appeared to the disciples ... Sites that for the most part are rarely seen either by tourist or Holy Land pilgrim.  A volume to be treasured, to be read and enjoyed again and again, this living Gospel records not just the landscapes and signposts of the ancient and honorable lands,  but the very lessons lived and taught by the FISHERS OF MEN.
